Remaking Post-Industrial Cities: Lessons from North America and
Europe examines the transformation of post-industrial cities after
the precipitous collapse of big industry in the 1980s on both sides
of the Atlantic, presenting a holistic approach to restoring
post-industrial cities. Developed from the influential 2013
Remaking Cities Congress, conference chair Donald K. Carter brings
together ten in-depth case studies of cities across North America
and Europe, documenting their recovery from 1985 to 2015. Each
chapter discusses the history of the city, its transformation, and
prospects for the future. The cases cross-cut these themes with
issues crucial to the resilience of post-industrial cities
including sustainability; doing more with less; public engagement;
and equity (social, economic and environmental), the most important
issue cities face today and for the foreseeable future. This book
provides essential "lessons learned" from the mistakes and
successes of these cities, and is an invaluable resource for
practitioners and students of planning, urban design, urban
redevelopment, economic development and public and social policy.
